the help page I had reference said.)

A quick google search came up with a complain on the fedora wiki that
says: "... A counter example however is the Firefox FC5 security update
that shipped without working SSL." D'oh! Ouch!
(Ref: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/UpdatesPolicy )
Another page that looks like it might have an answer:

Hope THAT helps. My Kubuntu Firefox works fine, so I have no way of
testing any of this. :)
Good luck!
